We’re in the midst of an exciting time where science and spirituality are finding common ground, as researchers are documenting the life transforming power of ancient practices such as meditation, deep belly breathing and mindfulness – the latter of which is our central theme this issue. We look at the science of mindfulness, the power of the breath, why mindfulness is a powerful tool for beauty and how essential oils help to bring us into the present moment. Nearly 2,500 years after mindfulness was identified in Buddhist philosophy as a core aspect of the path to awakening, it’s being recognised for its ability to bring us into calmness, presence and wellness. Today, clinical psychologists are teaching the wisdom that the Buddha coined several thousand years ago: “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate your mind on the present moment.” We hope you enjoy this issue.
